1. NSW Stamp Duty vs England VED

This calculator provides two different calculations:

• NSW Stamp Duty: A one-time tax paid when registering a vehicle in New South Wales, Australia, based on the vehicle's value.
• England VED (Vehicle Excise Duty): An annual tax paid for vehicles registered in England, based primarily on CO2 emissions.

2. NSW Stamp Duty Calculation

NSW stamp duty is calculated as follows:

• 3% of vehicle value up to $45,000
• 5% of value between $45,001 and $54,000
• 7% of value between $54,001 and $150,000
• 9% of value above $150,000

Example: For a $60,000 vehicle: $1,350 (first $45k) + $450 (next $9k) + $420 (remaining $6k) = $2,220 total duty.

3. England VED (CO2 Based)

England's Vehicle Excise Duty has two components:

• First Year Rate: Based on CO2 emissions (g/km) and fuel type
• Standard Rate: Paid annually after the first year (£180 for petrol/diesel, £155 for alternative fuels, £0 for electric)

Note: Electric vehicles are currently exempt from VED. Alternative fuels include hybrids, LPG, bioethanol, etc.
